Suides manage semi-finals in netball tourney

There was exciting netball played on the day by the eight teams.

Kingsway High School hoisted the South Coast Regional trophy for the third consecutive year after defeating Kuswag Skool 12-11 at the SPAR KZN Schoolgirls’ Fast 5s Netball Challenge at Creston College last Saturday.

The top two teams clashed in an Amanzimtoti derby where only the one point separated the two teams after a monumental final.

Playing the bookend games, the two finalists met in the first game of the day, where Kuswag were victorious, going up 10-8.

Kuswag had a successful build-up to the finals, winning all of their round robin games, while Kingsway only registered the one loss and finished second overall.

In the semi-finals, Kuswag met Suid-Natal High, who finished third on the log, while Kingsway took on KwaMakhuta Comprehensive High, who finished the round robin in fourth.

The next challenge sees the schools head to King Edward High in Matatiele for the KZN Southern Regional this Saturday.
